Number of Hedge Fund Holdings in Q4 2025: 264

Performance Since Cramer’s Remarks: 26.8%

Date/Month of Cramer’s Remarks: January 3rd, 2025

AI giant NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) is the most valuable company in the world, courtesy of its $4.5 trillion in market capitalization. Over the past year, the stock is up by 53%, and since Cramer’s comments in January, it is up by 26.8%. However, soon after Cramer discussed the stock, NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) went through one of the worst periods in its history after the stock cratered during last year’s DeepSeek selloff as investors fretted about the demand for the firm’s AI GPUs. Yet, since April 2025, the shares have been on a bullish run as they are up by more than 94%. In November, NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA)’s stock jumped by 6% in extended trading following the firm’s fiscal third quarter earnings report. The results saw it post a 62% annual jump in quarterly sales while its fourth quarter guidance of $65 billion beat analyst estimates of $61.2 billion. However, NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA)’s shares dipped by 4% in February due to what media reports attributed to a lack of shareholder returns due to continued investment. In January last year, Cramer had wondered whether the stock could go to an all-time high:

“Customers want cheaper chips. Amazon’s trying to make them. That said, if Jensen can give his customers a four times return on investment, that’s what he’s gonna talk about and show us on Monday night: actual cases of how that can be accomplished. I doubt Amazon or anyone else could compete with that and maybe Nvidia actually goes to a new all-time high.”
